The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Linnea Lueken present episode 448 of the In The Tank Podcast. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink was featured at a recent World Economic Forum event where he spoke on the subject of future investments. Toward the end of the panel, Fink trashed wind and solar as viable options to meet our economy's growing appetite for cheap, reliable energy. Are these statements by Fink just an anomaly in the larger climate alarmist movement or do they signal a potential shift in global energy trends?
